Episode description
In the first of a six-part mini-series, Dom Hawes speaks to Steve Lemon, partner at UK venture capital firm Volution about how marketers can help their businesses resist recession.
TL;DR The VC view is that businesses must continue investing in their growth engine: marketing.
Key takeaways
Economic labels like recession and inflation may no longer fit the situation now, making it difficult for businesses to navigate the market.The fundraising environment is a potential leading indicator of the UK economy and businesses too. We’re seeing conservative decision-making and increased difficulty in raising funds. This will slow growth.It’s important to maintain marketing efforts during tough times to maintain momentum, build the brand, and drive business growth.Businesses should refocus on their value proposition, reminding themselves and their customers of the problem they're solving.Marketing, sales, and product teams should work together closely to understand and address customer needs, segment audiences, and adapt their propositions accordingly.
About the Guest

It’s a mash-up of servant leadership combined with cross functional, collaborative ways of working and it creates massive team engagement - which leads to great outcomes for the end user and ultimately increases shareholder value. Steve has also been a Mentor for Techstars since 2017.
